The Supreme Court's Dangerous Return to Its Roots
Amicus With Dahlia Lithwick | Law, justice, and the courts
John Roberts and the Brennan Center
John Roberts is in some measure an institutionalist he does keep one eye on the credibility of the court with the public.

They're all attacking each other in public now again at a moment when their oracular silence is necessary to pretend this is just being a judge and not being a political actor.
